Prophet Mohammed himself, during the lunar eclipse, instructs people of Islam to recite Namaz. They say that during the lunar eclipse, Muslims should go to the mosque and sit together and offer Namaz. This Namaz, which is recited during the lunar eclipse, is called 'Salat al Qusuf'. This namaz is very different from the namaz which is recited five times a day. During 'Salat Al Qusuf' Namaji has to pray on the ground and pray. At this time, Namazi prays to Allah, remembering the powers of Allah and its remedies. So that during the lunar eclipse Allah spared them mercy.

According to Mohammad's Paigambar order, it is not compulsory for all Muslims to recite Namaz during a lunar eclipse. During this time, only those Muslim people who have their eyes on the moon during the lunar eclipse should read Namaz. Remember that during this period one should turn to the mosque as soon as the moon is sighted, and the Namaz should be read until the effect of the lunar eclipse is completely eliminated. For this reason, it takes longer than normal prayers.
